checkFdbHelper function
Checks if fdb_helper extensions are registered in the running app.
Returns the Flutter isolate ID if fdb_helper is available, or null if not. Callers can reuse the returned isolate ID to avoid a second round-trip.
Re-throws AppDiedException so the caller can surface a structured error instead of a misleading "fdb_helper not detected" message.
Implementation
Future<String?> checkFdbHelper() async {
try {
final isolateId = await findFlutterIsolateId();
if (isolateId == null) return null;
await vmServiceCall(
'ext.fdb.elements',
params: {'isolateId': isolateId},
timeout: const Duration(seconds: 3),
);
return isolateId;
} on AppDiedException {
rethrow;
} catch (_) {
return null;
}
}
